Q.
I had to have a bridge replaced recently. The new bridge is too low and I have a space of about 2 and a half teeth where my new, upper bridge isn’t touching my bottom teeth. My dentist says it will self adjust. But it’s been over 2 months and it doesn’t appear to ba adjusting at all. I’m wondering if it will eventually readjust, and if not, what my options are. Thank you

I think you should discuss this with your dentist. If your teeth are not touching on that side of your mouth you may not be able to function properly and this should be evaluated.
